Being in complete honesty, it's without question the best spin-off ever made, even surpassing the main show, Breaking Bad. It is an incredible piece of art that unfolds after you the more and more you watch it, in terms of lighting, cinematography, movement composition, acting too, it has no equal in my opinion.

Equally as good as Breaking Bad, but Better Call Saul is a lot more slow-paced and less of a thriller than Breaking Bad was; therefore, it is probably harder to watch in a sense. But once you get past that, it's a fantastic TV show that deserves all the praise it has gotten.

Breaking Bad was made for the public, Better Call Saul was made for the arts.

My Review – Better Call Saul – 10/10 I gave Better Call Saul a 10 out of 10 because it’s a brilliant, slow-burn prequel that expands on the world of Breaking Bad in an amazing way. The story of Jimmy McGill transforming into Saul Goodman is captivating, and the character development is outstanding. The writing is clever, the acting is phenomenal, and the show perfectly balances drama, tension, and dark humor. It’s compelling, emotional, and keeps you invested every step of the way. This is why Better Call Saul is a 10/10.

This show is a full zero, and yes I watched the first season. Why? Because the writers confuse chaos and entropy for character arc. We are told from the first sequence of the pilot that the main protagonist goes nowhere and end as a nobody, which means that everything that happens in the show means nothing and will be erased sooner or later.

Inevitably, the first thing that happened to me with Better Call Saul was comparing it all the time to Breaking Bad. And of course, it always comes out losing a bit there. It doesn’t have those bursts of adrenaline, or that constant feeling that everything is about to explode. It’s a more patient, more contained series, one that prefers to stay in the nuances and silences rather than in big shocks. Even so, I liked it a lot; it’s just playing in a different league, quieter, but very carefully thought out.What hooks you most is watching Jimmy McGill slowly slide, almost without realising it, into Saul Goodman. It’s not a sharp turn; it’s a slow drift, full of small dubious choices that you understand, even if you don’t agree with them. That “I am myself and my circumstances” is crystal clear here: family, resentment, the need for recognition, money, ego… everything mixes until the character we knew in Breaking Bad finally clicks. Bob Odenkirk carries this evolution with a performance full of humanity: you laugh with him, you like him, but you know he’s losing **** show’s other big asset is its supporting cast. Kim is not just “the girlfriend”; she’s a fully rounded character, with her own contradictions, who slowly becomes infected by Jimmy’s world until she crosses lines that in the first season seemed unthinkable. Mike, meanwhile, works as a dry, weary counterpoint, someone who has already accepted the life he leads and decides to carry it without asking too many questions, even if there are still traces of conscience buried inside. Around them, the gallery of judges, criminals, bosses and cartel members fills the universe with faces that always add something.Visually, the series keeps the Breaking Bad seal: odd but very deliberate framing, that blinding Albuquerque light, little details that tell you things without any dialogue (a car, a cup, a colour shift). Sometimes it feels “slow”, but if you let it take you, you see that calm is deliberate: it’s getting you ready for when everything goes wrong. It doesn’t have the fireworks of Breaking Bad’s finale, but it does have moments that stick with you for pure sadness, for sheer moral wear and **** the end I’m left with the feeling that Better Call Saul always lives in the shadow of a sacred monster, and that means that, for me, it never quite reaches its level. But it’s also clear that it doesn’t need to imitate it to justify existing. It’s something else: more intimate, greyer, less “spectacular”, but very solid and very consistent with what it wants to tell. It’s not the series that will change your life, but it is one of those shows that’s hard to say goodbye to, because you end up feeling its characters almost like people you actually know. And that, these days, is not nothing.

Magistral de bout en bout. Dialogue, mise en scène, photographie, histoire, rebondissements, acting etc. À voir absolument, jusqu'au bout!

Absolute cinema. Starts off slow but then the pace ramps up and has you on the edge of your seat throughout. 10/10

When Better Call Saul was first announced, I thought, how interesting can a TV show about the lawyer from Breaking Bad really be? Holy **** — 10 out of 10

I never thought id really care for lawyer shows ever but my goodness this is a 20/10 show you literally cannot love this

Une des meilleures expériences quej'ai pu avoir les acteurs sont formidables dans chaque personnages la cinématographique est au petit oignons la trame secondaire est incroyable je pense à despersonnages comme mike ou nacho la relation au début avec jimmy et chuck est formidable bref je vous conseille fortement

Obra maestra. Serie mas cruda y con un desarrollo de personajes mucho mas profundo del que te tienen acostumbrado en Breaking Bad, pero que a mi personalmente ha hecho que me haya gustado mas que la predecesora. La narración y el guion son impecables, por no hablar del aspecto cinematográfico. Es de esas series que en el momento que te cautiva no puedes parar de verla. Es un delito que esta serie no haya ganado ningún premio. Mi serie favorita sin duda alguna.

The character development is fantastic, and breaking bad fans will appreciate getting the backstory of characters like Saul, Mike, and Gus. Saul's cons are hands down the best part of the show. My biggest problem with the show is that towards the end, there are flashforward scenes that don't make any sense to people who haven't watched Breaking Bad (they take place after the events of Breaking Bad), and for fans who have watched Breaking Bad, these scenes still jumble up the pacing of the show. Overall though, this is a good show, even if it is much slower paced compared to Breaking Bad.

Never disappointed me I love this show so much every episode is perfect absolutely cinema

A very worthy follow-up to Breaking Bad. Bob Odenkirk anchors the show and really shows off Jimmy McGill's fall. I still like Breaking Bad better but this show is excellent.

On the verge of peak television, but it takes several seasons to get to its point, and continues on for about a half season after it's said everything it has to say.

Masterfully directed, Better Call Saul proves Vince's meticulously attention to detail and groundbreaking cinematography.

I can't believe they made a spinoff as good or maybe even better then the original. One of the all time greatest shows.

Pretty entertaining, well written characters and story just like the breaking bad

A sequel show I wasn't sure about ended up becoming better than the main show that spawned it. Better Call Saul is a fantastic experience that provides an interesting backstory to one of the best Breaking Bad characters. Watching Jimmy as he still tries to do the right thing, before the days of him meeting Walt and Jesse, is captivating enough in the early seasons when the stakes are lower. Throughout the show, the stakes rise higher and higher, until it results in big hitters like Lalo and Mike being the type of characters Jimmy has to contend with. Season 5 was such a good season, that I watched the entire thing in one sitting in one day, it is extremely rare that happens for me. Unlike most other shows, Better Call Saul, just like it's predecessor, manages to stick the landing with a satisfying conclusion. A GOAT of 21st century TV and one that will only continue to be praised as time goes on.

This series answers many questions that Breaking Bad leaves us with. Many good and interesting characters are presented in this work, and many characters already present in Breaking Bad are explored much more. The beginning of the series is a little boring, but with each episode it gets better and more attractive. Vince is a genius.

I consider Breaking Bad to be the best series to have ever graced TV, but BCS doesn't even come close to matching its brilliance. Practically every character is a ridiculous caricature, so much so, it's difficult to impossible to care about or sympathize with any of them. Unlike BB's riveting plot line and pacing, BCS is a borefest in comparison. The series has its moments, but overall this feels more like something written by fans of BB rather than its original authors. The only characters from BB that are given more than cameos are Mike, Fring, and Hector. Walt, Jessie and Hank's appearances are wasted opportunities where they show up for mere minutes in scenes that could have easily been excluded, adding nothing of interest to the plot. Mike gets lots of screen time, but I found his character one dimensional and his side plot underwhelming. Likewise, a good bit of time was devoted to Fring's story which was equally uninteresting. Even the finale was a major letdown. How others are rating this series a 10/10 is beyond me...

This really is the best piece of media television ever in the history of TV show WATCH IT NOW

It is a stone-cold series, so to speak. If you say you don't know what to watch and you are a Breaking Bad fan, this filler-like series will satisfy you greatly.

ITS fantastic Jdhjdjdjdjfjjfjfjfnfjffnffdjdjdjfjjfjf

The camera work in this emmy worthy show (They keep getting robbed) is second to none. Every scnene is one of substance that is integral to the story and the characters. Bob Odenkirk shows his versatile acting capabilities by playing the witty, ABQ lawyer who gets tangled into greed fest.

An amazing show and an even better prequel to a character thats just supposed to be a comic relief. I probably even prefer this show over breaking bad.

Could've been more enjoyable but i totally respect the direction they went with watch the whole series, u wont regret it :)

One of the best TV shows I have watched. Less bombastic than Breaking Bad but the visual storytelling is next level. It was a nice conclusion to the Breaking Bad universe.

Vravo, Bince.

Kim Wexler, the best character ever. Definitely the best TV show of all time for me.

Starts slow, gets into its stride, season 5 and 6 are probably not worth watching. It is just closing the loop for Breaking bad to start.

I watched this show straight off a Breaking Bad binge with zero expectations. It started out slowwww for me. I thought to myself "he's allergic to electricity, really???" The more I watched, the more the story developed, I got hooked. Unlike most shows, the last two seasons are the best. So well written, so well shot, so well acted. One of my all time favorite shows. Ever

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

This is gonna be a short review, so let me be very forward if you are a person that has not watched this if you are a person that likes law and crime drama, this show is for you. I am so happy that before I start watching breaking bad I watched this because this is perfect in every single way possible. Here are the bads, it loses itself a bit a the end, but you are hooked completely, trust me In all my years of watching shows(I probably should put more reviews for shows), This is one of the best if not the best crime, law, drama I have ever seen. Sure Law and Order but this is a different beast. It gets a 10/10, watch this now if you haven't it's worth it.

An absolute Masterpiece, how can anyone not enjoy this? 10 out of 10, a worthy prequel to Breaking Bad.

Better call saul é uma série ótima mas o final é uma bosta! Todos atores são ótimos mas Bob Odenkirk é fantástico.

As a prequel to the masterpiece that is "Breaking Bad," "Better Call Saul" faces an exceedingly challenging and demanding task, with fans expecting nothing less than excellence. Nevertheless, I'm thrilled to report that it more than lives up to its predecessor as a truly deserving prequel. The storyline is intriguing and skillfully crafted, and the actors' performances are remarkably solid. If you enjoyed "Breaking Bad," you're bound to relish "Better Call Saul" as well.

Underrated tv show session 1,2,3 little bit slow but Vince gilligan will do his magic at the end of the sessions

It's the best written series of the last decade. Vince Gilligan is one of the best series director i have ever met.

My favourite tv show of all time, this show is amazing. My favourite aspect is probably the cinematography since, not only does it make the show look beautiful, but all of the shots seem intentional, such that they add to the story of the show - 10/10.

Complex characters, an engaging plot, and standout cast performances make this show everything you could desire from a drama. The distinctive fusion of dark comedy and touching scenes that distinguishes this series from others makes it enjoyable to watch. The show is an immersive experience that keeps you on the edge of your seat because of the meticulous attention to detail and the skilled cinematography. Better Call Saul is unquestionably worth watching if you're searching for a compelling, expertly made series that will satisfy and entertain you.

BEST TV SHOW EVER. Don't read reviews. Just watch. And watch after Breaking Bad. Immediately. Story is perfect, characters are perfect, views are perfect, episodes are masterpiece. I would give it 15/10

Hello, this is a default review because i'm forced to use 75 characters. I'll edit this review in the future talking about the game, don't worry ;) This serie was kinda heavy to watch, but on Season 4 it's getting even better to watch. My final rate is: 9
